And, at the back of the store is something really neat – howabout a music CD by the” Island’s own” Breakmen, featuringArchie Pateman, or bright local talent Mike Cormier’s “NewLove” CD. Both offer wonderful easy listening for any time ofyear and both are a “must” for any Island music library.
We then pointed the car eastward, heading for another of ourregular stops at Kent’s Corners where once again, Judy andRalph MacMichael have laid on quite a few Christmas giftideas and new treasures!
We saw delightful stained glass sun catchers in a number ofshapes, including an angel, fish, sailboat and lady bug, all inthe $16 to $19 price range. They’re still carrying the ever-popular ‘Fisher Girl’ line of clothing and ‘light-up’ fishinggear, for under $40. and now they’ve gone even further with“Magic Boxer Shorts” and – you’ve got to see this – theseteenie, tiny itty-bitty packages that, when you add water,expand up into a Top and Shorts outfit!

Our Health Care CommitteeRenews its Mission
MONDAY NIGHT’S MEETING of the Central AlgomaRural Health Care Committee (often formerly referred tosimply as ‘the Steering Committee’) could have gone eitherway. Originally commissioned by amalgamating the ad hoccitizen action Committees and representatives of the munici-palities involved, the Committee was the central focus for thefight to save Matthews Memorial Hospital from closure by itsparent, the Sault Area Hospital.
The Committee later expanded its mandate to include main-taining and enhancing our health care services. With theassurance by the North East Local Heathcare IntegrationNetwork (NE LHIN) that MMH would join the Thessalonand Blind River hospitals in a three-way rural health carepartnership, it appeared that the group’s primary missionhad indeed been accomplished.
The Committee adjourned pending further action beingrequired, and had not met since last May. In that time, two ofthe group’s three Co-chairs, Tom Dalton and Jack Priest indi-cated their desire to move on to other priorities and opt outof their leadership positions.
Monday’s agenda was centred on two questions:
• Should the Committee now disband? and if so,
• How should the funds remaining on hand be disbursed?
It didn’t take long to answer question number 1! As memberafter member rose to speak, it quickly became clear that ourlocal health care issues are far from settled – in fact, insteadof seeing our services maintained or enhanced, we’re seeing adecrease in services, as evidenced by the recent cessation ofblood work at MMH for patients who are not rostered withthe BridgeLink Medical Clinic. Both the Matthews MemorialHospital Association and an ad hoc citizens’ group areaddressing this issue.
Nor has there been any definite word about how the amalga-mation of the three hospitals is progressing, if at all. Bothour former MP Tony Martin and MPP Mike Brown havenow been replaced in the recent elections, leaving a possible‘disconnect’ politically until their replacements, Bryan Hayes,MP and Mike Mantha, MPP are “brought up to speed” onthe issues.
The Committee voted overwhelmingly that their work isindeed not yet finished, and re-dedicated itself to continuingthe efforts to maintain and enhance our rural health care.Given the need to have the Committee’s leadership“balanced” between municipal leaders, private citizens andhealth care groups, the Committee elected Echo Bay’s LynnWatson, Island Resident and MMHA Director Bruce Proutand MMHA Board Chair Connie Witty to the key positionsof Co-Chairs. 246-2777 RICHARDS LANDING
